Chapter 150: The Altar of Water

The dull footsteps passed slowly by us, and every time the sound of landing sounded, the ground was shaking slightly.

I suppressed my breathing, fearing that a little gasping would attract the attention of the monster. Fortunately, the monster was too large, and our figure was as small as a toy compared to this monster. With so many petrified shades, it never discovered us. Finally, after roaring unwillingly, it began to walk towards the depths of the darkness.

As the footsteps gradually moved away, I let go of my hand that was covering Ge Zhuang's lips. My back was already exhausted by cold sweat. I fell to the ground and gasped.

"Little Pumpkin..." Not long after, a faint light appeared in the dark night, and then a gentle footstep was moving closer to me. I heard Lao Zhong shouting at me in a low voice and hurriedly sat up. The fluorescent dots in the darkness became brighter and brighter, and I saw clearly that it was Lao Zhong because Lao Zhong was holding a cold light stick in his hand, and there was a faint light flashing in the darkness, which also guided the direction for the people scattered on the side.

Two minutes later, everyone gathered together again. We didn't dare to turn on the searchlight. Each of us had a cold light stick and curled our bodies into the petrified rainforest.

The brightness of this cold light rod is very weak and can only find a distance of less than two meters, so there is no need to worry about being discovered by that kind of monster. However, in this way, our vision is also compressed a lot and we can't see the surrounding environment clearly.

After everyone breathed evenly, Chen Yun whispered, "Why do I think this crack in the ground doesn't look like the civilized ruins of Gu Yelang, but rather like things before ancient times?" I whispered, "Did you guess something?"

Chen Yun shook her head in the dim light, frowned and said, "The one who attacked us just now is probably a dinosaur that had long been extinct!"

What!

This made my chin fall to the ground. Everyone was like a joke and turned their heads to Chen Yun, saying, "Damn, when did the dinosaurs become extinct? That was something tens of millions of years ago, the Triassic, Jurassic or the Cretaceous? I would rather believe that there are aliens in this world than believe such a ridiculous statement.

Chen Yun waited until I complained before saying, "What do you think this should be?"

I was stopped by her question, and she didn't say anything. Xiao Zhang suddenly said, "I support Professor Chen's statement. I have found many Cretaceous plant fossils in the cracks before, which shows that this crack was born at least in that era. Think about it, this crack should have been a natural canyon, but why was it covered by rocks and formed such a large crack? There is only one explanation, that is, a disaster!"

Xiao Zhang then explained that it is possible that in ancient times, a huge geological disaster occurred on the earth, causing the extinction of dinosaurs. It is precisely because of this geological disaster that the canyon was covered and a natural crack in the crack, and the original ancient creatures in the crack were preserved and reproduced to this day.

I retorted, "The cracks in the ground are semi-closed. Although there is air and water, there is no sunlight. Moreover, the large rainforest is covered with greystone and resources are limited. Such an ecological environment cannot provide enough living environment for dinosaurs." Xiao Zhang asked me back, saying that since this is the case, how should the monster just now explain?

I smiled bitterly, "I don't know this, I believe that thing is a dinosaur anyway."

Chen Yun said stop fighting, let's continue to explore the way forward. I have a direct feeling that there are a lot of secrets in this crack, perhaps not only the civilized ruins of Gu Yelang.

I am now starting to give in. I am not afraid of ghosts, nor am I afraid of Zongzi. Compared with the giant monster just now, Zongzi and Ghost are considered as balls? The absolute size represents absolute power. This monster only needs a charge, which is enough to completely crush us. Even if you hold a heavy cannon, it will probably be useless.

But after finally getting here, if you give up easily, Chen Yun will inevitably see it all over and call me timid. I am just a person who is just for fear of face. I am obviously very scared, but I feel embarrassed to say it out loud, and push Ge Zhuang with my elbow, "Are you afraid, fat man?"

Based on my understanding of Ge Zhuang, this grandson must be very scared at this time. Who knew that he said with a stern face, "Who is afraid? What he is afraid of is a puppy!"

I warned him righteously, "It's okay, fat man, if you are afraid, just say it, and after that, I will take you back!"

I just hoped that this fat man could cry twice now, so that I would have a reason to take everyone away just because of the justification, but this fat man is the same as me, and the fat man is stubborn, but he just refuses to let go. Chen Yun couldn't bear to see it anymore and said, "Sima Nan, I think it's clear that you are afraid of yourself, why are you difficult for fat man?"

I was dissatisfied when I heard this, so I patted my butt and stood up, saying that all the opposition was a paper tiger, and I was afraid of a ball? Chen Yun said that OK, go ahead and explore the way!

My heels softened, and I grabbed the Leng Guang stick and froze there. Ge Zhuang smiled softly, patted my ass with big claws, and said, "You're called shooting yourself in the foot, aren't you afraid?"

I bit the bullet and said, Of course I am not afraid, but Grandpa Mao taught us to be humble and that this opportunity to make contributions should be given to other comrades! Chen Yun gave me a blank look and said with a bitter face, "Sima Nan, I found that you are getting thicker and thicker, and you will be shouting slogans one by one, very high-sounding. Should you leave?"

I said with a dark face, that's right, let's go.

Turning back, I had the urge to slap myself in the face. I could only grit my teeth and explore the way through Haikou. Anyway, there were only a few people. If I didn’t walk in front, I had to change to Lao Zhong or Ge Zhuang to walk in front.

There were water drops on the stalactite in front, ticking. Through this petrified forest, we walked to a shallow with water accumulation. This place used to be an altar, but it was only a thousand years ago and no one had maintained it, so a lot of water was filled. I squatted down and looked carefully in the shallow with the help of a little light emitted from the cold light rod. After a long time, I stood up and said,

"There are stone bricks on the ground, which are obviously man-made, which means that there were indeed signs of human activities here a thousand years ago, and they must have sacrificed their gods."

Ge Zhuang said inexplicably, "If the ancient Yelang people were here to worship gods, then what would be the mountain temple we walked through before?" I said fat man, that mountain temple is just a cover, used to cover up the truth of history. Of course, a wooden mind like you can't figure out the key. Even in ancient times, with your wisdom, it was lower than the average level of human beings.

Ge Zhuang was anxious and argued with me that his IQ was absolutely top-notch. Looking at human history, only the Westerner named "Love" could barely tie it. Chen Yun told us not to quarrel, and she stopped us. She began to study the altar carefully.
